New poll of business leaders highlights sustainability priorities for global companies
BSR and GlobeScan surveyed more than 500 business leaders drawn from BSR’s global network of nearly 300 member companies.
To examine the progress made in sustainability over the 20 years since BSR was founded, the survey asked executives to evaluate the past and likely future progress on 14 key sustainability challenges. Considering the next 20 years, respondents rated sustainability reporting, water, and responsible supply chains as the areas in which business will likely make the most progress. In contrast, respondents were least optimistic about future progress being made in public policy, governance, and employee treatment.
